The late-medieval Italian Milanese style is characterized by large, rounded surfaces that effectively divert incoming hits and divide their kinetic impact energy into a large armor area. This style has spread throughout the whole Europe. In Milan, however, masterpieces were made for the nobility and the rich people from the whole Europe.
